MFP users

Rink08

I recently started using the program and am looking for people to link up with. I lost 17lbs before starting it and then plateaued for a little over 4 months so DH recommended that I use it with him. I've had a rough last few days (it's my birthday week and we've been surrounded by homemade desserts and dinner outs by family members) and feel like it'd help me to get back on track to have some other people there as motivation. My user name is Roses822.

Who else is using the program?
How is it going for you?

I will start doing it again this week.  I am Arnegard.

I have not been on since DH went to the hospital last week.

@Arnegard How is he doing?

Maaaan I gave up on MFP! It was too much of a pain to figure out the calories in the random stuff I eat. Is there an easy way to do that that I'm just missing?

Good.  Thank you for asking!!

The blood clot in his lower leg is not resolved yet.  It should take a few more weeks to breakdown with the blood thinners.  He has to keep his leg elevated most of the time.

He went back to work on Tuesday and worked the week (four 12 hour shifts).  He has OT and a doc appt this week before he goes back to work.

There is a scan it part to the app that I like.  I think it just makes us accountable to what we eat.
